"γλῶσσα" meaning in Ancient Greek

See γλῶσσα in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ɡlɔ̂ːs.sa/, /ˈɣlos.sa/, /ˈɣlo.sa/, /ɡlɔ̂ːs.sa/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈɡlos.sa/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈɣlos.sa/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈɣlos.sa/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈɣlo.sa/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: From Proto-Hellenic *glṓťťā; further etymology uncertain. Per Beekes, perhaps originally “provided with a point”, equivalent to γλῶχες (glôkhes, “beard of corn”) + -ια (-ia), from Proto-Indo-European *glṓgʰs ~ *gl̥gʰós (“point”) (assuming cognacy with Proto-Slavic *glogъ (“thorn, hawthorn”), but the connection is disputed). Alternatively, related to Proto-Germanic *tulgaz (“tongue”), a poetic word, from a different Proto-Indo-European root noun *dlṓgʰs ~ *dl̥gʰós; compare γλυκύς (glukús) for the phonetics. Or, possibly related to Albanian gjuhë (“tongue”), but the irregular correspondence would point to a substrate language.

Per Beekes, perhaps originally “provided with a point”, equivalent to γλῶχες (glôkhes, “beard of corn”) + -ια (-ia), from Proto-Indo-European *glṓgʰs ~ *gl̥gʰós (“point”) (assuming cognacy with Proto-Slavic *glogъ (“thorn, hawthorn”), but the connection is disputed). Alternatively, related to Proto-Germanic *tulgaz (“tongue”), a poetic word, from a different Proto-Indo-European root noun *dlṓgʰs ~ *dl̥gʰós; compare γλυκύς (glukús) for the phonetics. Or, possibly related to Albanian gjuhë (“tongue”), but the irregular correspondence would point to a substrate language.",
